Guess who's back!!!!
Yesterday, I told you about Reggie Miller being accused of stalking. Well, now I have more details surrounding those allegations. It was indeed, Alex von Furstenburg (son of designer Diane von Furstenburg) who hired the plane to carry the "Reggie Miller Stop Pursuing Married Women" sign. But, according to Reggie, he was just flirting, not stalking. Here's how TMZ is reporting it:
"According to Reggie's rep, Miller and Ali met at a Malibu supermarket back in March. Reggie says the two flirted and spent the rest of the day texting like crazy--each sending more than 50 texts to the other in a 6 hour span (we obtained Reggie's phone records).
Reggie claims Ali--a clothing designer--even texted him 2 provocative photos of her self, which TMZ has obtained.
But, according to Reggie, in April he had enough and took her out of his phone contact list. But Reggie says in May, Ali reconnected with him, wanting to know why he had closed the door. Reggie says the next day he got an angry call from Alex.
Reggie claims Alex then began a campaign of harassment--repeatedly calling Miller's friends and even hiring a private investigator to tail Reggie. Alex says he escalated matters because Reggie continued to pursue his fiancee. Reggie says not only is that a lie...Reggie had to hire a lawyer to prepare a restraining order against Alex. Alex responded by hiring his own lawyer to prepare a counter restraining order, but neither document was ever filed with the court.
Over the July 4th weekend, we're told there was a telephone summit in which Reggie, Alex and the lawyers supposedly buried the hatchet and it seemed everyone had moved on...that is, until the giant sign flew over the beach. "
Wow. I think I'm going to side with Reggie on this one. It sounds like this Alex guy is a little crazy. Maybe he should check his wife or fiancee or whatever she is, because it sounds to me like she's the one pursuing Reggie. This is a mess.
See Rasheda's Rundown: "Tidbits and a whole lot more!" for the previous post about this story.
CONGRATULATIONS to Miss Jennifer Hudson and her fiance David Otunga a.k.a. "Punk." The couple gave birth to a baby boy late Monday night. David Daniel Otunga, Jr. weighed in at seven pounds and fourteen ounces. The couple opted not to know the sex of the baby until birth.
Both Jennifer and David never officially said thery were having a baby, but preggers pics and word of a baby shower started popping up all over the place. Not to mention, Jennifer was about to pop at the Michael Jackson memorial! But, according to theybf.com, a statement was released as to why the couple kept it, or at least tried to keep it so hush hush.
Part of this was privacy, some of it was a superstition, but most of it had to do with the terrible tragedy she and her family underwent last October. The murders of her mother, brother, and nephew were beyond comprehension. But, Jennifer, who is basically a positive person, turned lemons into lemonade. She and fiancee Otunga conceived a child soon after the episode.
Girl, who'd you think you was fooling?
Jennifer's publicist says the baby is "beautiful and perfect" and "his parents are ecstatic."
I bet Baby David is a cutie.
Rumors of triple threat, Jamie Foxx having a new baby have been buzzing all over the internet. And at a recent taping of The Wendy Williams Show, it was pretty much confirmed. But, Jamie wasn't the one that spilled the beans. Former co-star of The Jamie Foxx Show, Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon spoke of a conversation she and Jamie had about the new baby:
"We saw each other Easter Sunday at a friend's house and he came with his lovely daughter and he told me that he had a new baby. I said, 'Wow, Jamie do I know the baby mama?' and he goes, 'No.' Then I go (jokingly), 'Do you know the baby mama?"
Well, alrighty then. Still waiting for Jamie to confirm this himself, even though I'm pretty sure we can trust Garcelle's words. But, until then, congrats anyway!
I should just make this Michael Jackson saga a separate daily insert. Geez. Anyway, at least this isn't something bad.
Organizers of a global tribute to the King of Pop has set a date for the event. September 26th (one day after my bday!). The concert will feature about 10 major entertainers (I bet Beyonce's one of them) who will perform 15 to 20 of Jackson's hits on a crown-shaped stage outside of the Schoenbrunn Palace in Vienna. Jermaine Jackson is expected to announce the lineup in the next two weeks or so.
Jermaine says that they chose Vienna as the venue because Michael "loved castles." Go figure.
And in other Jackson family news...LaToya is reportedly in serious talks to join the next season of Dancing With the Stars. That is all.
Call me petty, but I'm sorry, I had to post these pictures so you could see how gorgeous LaToya used to be. She and Michael should've stayed the way they were. I don't know what happened...I mean, I know what happened, but...I just don't understand it. SMH
Anyway...
Guess who is coming back!!!
PEE WEE HERMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you're an eighties baby like myself, then you are probably just as excited as I am (and probably just as embarrassed to admit it)! After 20 years in retirement, Paul Reubens is bringing back the character in a stage show that is set to run from November 19-29.
"It's time. My Pee-wee suit and red bow tie are ready--and this is proof that white shoes are cool past Labor Day," said Paul.
"I've put part of him away for a long time, but part of him has always been here with me," Paul told the Los Angeles Times.
However, the actor did confess that he has some fear about bringing Pee-wee back into the limelight.
"I have some fear that he won't be funny after all this time. I don't want to ruin it."
The stage show, called "The Pee-wee Herman Show," is based on the first version that Paul debuted at the Groundings Theatre in LA in 1981.
The character grew in popularity which exploded into a slew of projects, including an HBO special, two feature films, and the Saturday morning series "Pee-wee's Playhouse" that aired on CBS.
In this version, you can expect to see most of the "Playhouse" characters, including Chaiiry, the talking chair, Pterri the pterodactyl, Miss Yvonne, Mailman Mike, Cowboy Curtis, and Jambi the Genie! They will not re-create the late Phil Hartman's character, Captain Carl.
Again, the show runs November 19-29 at the Music Box at The Fonda in Hollywood. Tickets are on sale now.
As much as I love him, Pee Wee Herman is kinda creepy.
Well, that's all for today folks! Don't forget to leave your 2 cents! Until next time!
